  • the opening of the mounting space 26 is designed in their geometry so that they can receive the circumferential rib 13 of the filter cartridge 1 and this with a gap of 1- 1-5. 5 mm wide encloses. In the case of an overhead assembly so loosely inserted, not yet strained filter insert is prevented from falling out.
  • FIG. 4 shows a partial section of an embodiment of a filter device according to the invention, wherein the filter insert is clamped and fixed, ie the seal 5 was pressed during insertion of the Verspannhister 21 by the Verspannhister 21 along the contact surfaces 10 of the filter cartridge and the support surface of the bulge 20 are supporting.
  • the housing-side ribs 29 dive with tolerance in the grooves 28 of the frame 4 a.
  • the seal 5 is held by the sealing surface 23 at a distance at the beginning of the insertion process by the circumferential rib 13 in the upper region of the sealing surface 23 rests on this.
  • the filter cartridge z. B. by the lowered mounting opening 18 has restricted to tilting to avoid the filter insert. This is achieved in that the guide extensions 31 located in the installation direction 11 strike the frame on at least one guide slope 32, which shifts the filter insert 1 in the direction of the sealing surface 23 during further insertion shortly before the end of the insertion process.
  • the housing-side ribs 29 dive into the grooves 28 of the frame, on the one hand, the freedom of movement of the filter insert is so far restricted that the likelihood of tilting of the insert in the housing 17 is reduced, but on the other hand, sufficient clearance is still available to the seal To press prematurely to the sealing surface, whereby the risk of folding or tilting of the seal 5 is reduced.
  • the raised part of the circumferential rib 13 engages in the mounting space 26 of the secondary air filter element, thus preventing the filter insert from falling out when mounted overhead, before the cover is mounted.
  • the cover 19 can now be mounted, wherein the bracing tabs is first guided by the guide extensions 14, wherein the risk of tilting the Verspannechter is reduced.
  • the clamping surfaces 22 of the Verspannechter 21 come into contact with the contact surfaces 10 of the filter cartridge, the filter insert is displaced in the direction of the sealing surface 23 and the seal 5 is pressed onto the sealing surface 23, whereby the raw side is sealingly separated from the clean side.
  • the filter device comprises an inlet-side pre-separator, as in FIG FIG. 4 shown.
  • the pre-separator consists of a two-part cyclone block 30, which has several small individual cyclones.
  • FIG. 6 shows a further section of an embodiment of a filter insert according to the invention in a filter device according to the invention with one opposite FIG. 4 changed cutting process.
  • mounting space 26 cut into a secondary filter element 33 which has a circumferential radial seal which clamps the secondary filter element 33 in the mounting space fluid-tight.
  • the circumferential rib of the filter cartridge 1 engages in the receiving space 26.
  • the seal 5 is pressed against the sealing surface in the sealing direction, wherein in this embodiment, the sealing direction of the main flow 8 corresponds.
